A whole lot is going on in our society's today through different channels, and the social media is one of such. There's a whole lot on socials that  many persons haven't taken into consideration as they get carried away with the events and cruise going on on social media platforms to the length that they compromise their privacy and security at the expense of social media cruise catching and fun.
There's a fast growing trend on social media platforms over the years now which caught my attention. An instance, like on Instagram or Facebook where a stranger will just make up a post asking interested persons to drop their phone contact numbers so they could be added to a hot Whatsapp group or a platform where they would have to connect with men and women for dating and sex talks, or have access to funny jokes/memes etc. Then you will notice a lot of phone contacts dropping like when it's raining. And I get amazed by what these persons really believe to achieve by exposing their contacts freely and easily to the public.


Here's a few probable factors you should bear in mind next time you want to do that:
1. Anyone can see and have access to your contact any day anytime as long as such social media platforms like the Facebook for instance still exists. And more often than not, it may not be your targeted person's or reason as to why you gave up your contact. what I call wrong target.


2. You may end up being bugged constantly with calls by strangers, not just any strangers but wrong and parasitic strangers.


3. You can easily be traced, accessed by persons with evil intentions, and moreso, sometimes these contacts are contact numbers we might have used as part of a requirement from an online registration of some financial account or instrument. If you're observed to be one rich folk some bad dudes might wanna clone your contact number (I don't know how they possibly do that) and be receiving certain vital financial related informations that could be used with a brute-force to crack down your asset and others, etc.


All this post is just particularly about is that don't get carried away by the antics of social media platforms as there are more wolves than folks.
